things arent always what they seem...

in order to fit our patio door height, we realized that we would need to "notch" out the concrete curb that runs the perimeter of the existing porch's sill. so while scott made a home depot run, i decided to try to remove the existing pressure treated sill that was inboard of the concrete curb- to prep the area for the concrete work. we were dreading the concrete work. so, i placed the pry bar between the PT sill and concrete curb but the PT sill did not budge...instead, the 20' long x 6" high x 6" deep concrete curb slid out of place by about 1". i was in shock! so, when scott returned we literally pushed the concrete "curb" out of the way---and we were ready to frame out the porch! nnnnnice!
